C. gracilis question

I have 3 C. gracilis scorpions living together, and I noticed tail on one of them is not "normal." Whereas the other 2 have their tails tall and erect, I noticed that the one abnormal one dragging on one side all the time.

When he has tried extending his tail to sting live crickets, he can't and he ends up stepping on his tail or just drags to the side. He has been eating okay despite the fact that he isn't as fat as his other 2 roommates.

I'm wondering if this is the result of a bad molt? And if it could pose an issue in (a) future molt(s)?
